When you want to paint knots and linings on wooden houses from the 18th to the 20th century, it is good to know that there was a different amount of refraction of the white color in different eras.

The most common was 30% green umber in the 18th century, giving a distinct limestone gray hue. During the 19th century, the fashion lightens and the “white” color often ended up around 15% green umber.

By the turn of the century, however, only light, soft white is the highest fashion, corresponding to 2% green umber.
